"I originally traded Ray Olson some PNW wild fungus for these puppies down in JT when I forgot to pack my EB's on a road trip."

Oh man you still have those dude! I lit up half of hidden valley campground with that fungus - funny man! Dimitri, The Kid, Watusi man we were ALL well fueled for a while. Oh my god.

Living in Olympia had it's benefits. One Thanksging the ex and I showed up in Josh with no rope, no gear, nothing. We did, however, have a 20 lb garbage bag of dried product harvested in one extraordinarily bountiful afternoon in Bellingham. We were kitted out for an El Cap route in less than 24 hours. Hidden Valley was an awfully warped place for the next couple of weeks. Go figure.
